I helped Luke bring the food inside before we sang songs around the fire and stuff.

I put the ketchup in the fridge and Luke came in with the last of the food.

"What's up with you and Calum?" Luke asked.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"Maggie are you guys dating?" He asked.

"No no no no" I said.

"So you guys are just friends?" He asked.

"Yes. " I told him.

"Good." He said. "I thought you guys were dating and if you did without telling me I would've been pissed at you and Calum."

I hugged Luke's torso and he hugged me back. We stood there hugging for a good 3 minutes.

"I love you Luke. " I said.

"I love you too beautiful." He said and kissed my forehead. We let go of each other and went back out.

"I'm going to get going. I want to see if my dads home and I have to go for a run before I go to sleep." I said.

"You want a ride home?" Calum asked.

"Sure." I said.

Ashton threw Calum his keys and we left.

In the car Calum took the long way to my house. He grabbed my hand and held it in his lap.

Calum became tense.

"What's the matter." I asked.

"Uh.... nothing..." Calum said.

"Ok seriously. What's the matter?"

"It's just...I really like you." He said.

"I really like you too." I said.

"I know you don't want a relationship or anything right now but we can be like a cleaner version of friends with benefits." He said.

"Umm... I don't know. I really need to focus on school and stuff. But I guess. I don't know. I need time to think about it." I said.

"Of course. Take all the time you need." He said as we pulled in my drive way.

"Thanks Calum. See ya later." I said and got out and waved back when I got to my door and watched him pull away.
